Some1 double check my shopping KArt

Ok,
so im gona jump on the PC train and hopefully wont fail.
so i spent serious man hours looking and searching for what i needed and went over the complete process in my head and am sure that these are the items i need and want.
Can some1 check if it is enough? too much?
I literally got nothing just a wash mit and some towerls in my garage to wash my G. So i need the basics relating to pc and polishing.
Many thanks

Your order is okay, there are better items out there but overall everything should work. I would have picked up some more pads, because you'll end up using the polishing pads and finishing pads more often. I would start with the swirl remover using the polishing pad before the orange pad to see if you get the level of correction needed, then move to the orange pad if its still not cutting it.

You will need to lube the clay, not just depend on the wet car or the clay will smudge.

Personally, I like to do the wax by hand, not with a buffer. Some apply by hand, buff to take off haze, then hand buff to finish. Try a small area each way and see what you prefer.

ya i know
but i decided im not gona spend 200-300 twice a year for some1 to do a detail thta really isnt up to my standards. So i said screw it, spend 400 getting all the stuff i need and self care my car. From months of reading on autopia.org, the work of a full detail isn't really that hard.
i hope they mail it to me b4 this weekend. Can't wait !!!!!! its supose to be cool and cloudy sat n sunday. so ima have fun.
